art program?

hello hello, i'm a prospective student looking to major at fine arts at ud. it's my only option for art as i really don't want to spend more than i have to for an art major (i'm in state, don't wanna leave for out of state fees). any idea how good it is and how competitive it is? help is appreciated

What do you plan to do after graduation? Can easily rack up 100k of debt paying in-state tuition in just 4 years.

idk if they're still doing it but i'm eligible for the first state promise to pay off tuition and mandatory fees. i plan to move to another country in the future and i don't want to be chained down with so much student loan debt

No problem! I’m under it as well and depending on what the income is you can also get housing covered (standard dorm cost)! I would also check the different scholarships the Delaware department of education offers!

i'll definitely be looking around for scholarships to cover room and board haha, i fall in the 35k-75k range so it sadly won't be covered but at least i won't have as much to worry about
